Prediction: Roma vs Inter Milan

In what is a heavyweight Serie A showdown on Saturday evening, Roma will welcome Inter Milan to the Stadio Olimpico.

With a stacked schedule from across the continent this weekend, there are plenty of attractive betting promotions available.

Starting with the hosts, gaining a string of plaudits last season as they secured a bronze medal finish among Italy’s elite, Roma have once again continued to shine since returning from the summer interval. With the mood around the Stadio Olimpico at red-hot high, some in Gian Piero Gasperini’s camp could be dreaming of the chance to mount a genuine title charge this year. Last seen on Monday night clinching a deserved 2-0 victory away at Torino, the former Atalanta boss finds his squad leading the chase at the top of the table. In fact, opening up the 2026/27 campaign with a stellar 4-1 romp against Monza on August 22nd, Roma have won all of their first four Serie A appearances by an aggregate score of 12-1.

While Ivory Coast international Evan Ndicka might have missed out away at Torino on Monday night with a reported illness, the former Eintracht Frankfurt midfielder could make an immediate return to Roma’s squad. However, academy graduate Muhammed Bah remains on the sidelines with a long-term knee injury.

Making his move to Rome a permanent one over the summer and embarking on a record-breaking run at the Stadio Olimpico, Donyell Malen has already registered six Serie A strikes and will lead the line on Saturday evening.

Inter Milan

As for the visitors, reclaiming their Serie A crown last season, Inter Milan have certainly underlined their status as Italy’s ultimate poster boys. Much like Saturday’s opponents, the Nerazzurri have also embarked on a dominant start to proceedings. Last seen on Monday night claiming a rollercoaster 5-3 victory at home against Udinese, Cristian Chivu’s camp have received a fearsome reputation from across the continent. Getting September underway with a sensational comeback against historic foes Napoli, Inter Milan have also won all of their opening four Serie A showdowns. Landing a 5-2 win when they last met Roma for a top-flight showdown back on April 5th, the former Verona boss will be dreaming of a repeat performance here. Likewise, the reigning Serie A champions have also won six of their previous seven battles against their potential title rivals.

Still waiting to make his Inter Milan debut after completing a shock switch from Tottenham last month, Djed Spence remains an injury doubt on Saturday evening. Missing out against Udinese on Monday with a reported thigh issue, Chivu’s side are also sweating over the fitness of Turkish ace Hakan Calhanoglu.

Handed a full rest earlier in the week, talismanic skipper Lautaro Martinez will certainly be handed a full recall and lead Inter out here. Making his move from Manchester City a permanent one over the summer, Manuel Akanji will start at the back.
